Design & Planning
Using SketchUp, Shapr3D, and Morpholio Trace, I design and render spaces before a single board is cut — so you can see exactly what you're getting. No designer required to get started.
What We Do
Custom Craftsmanship
High-end finish carpentry, custom built-ins, staircases, kitchens and cabinetry, and CNC millwork production — the signature work that defines a space.
Construction & Collaboration
New construction, renovations and remodeling, general carpentry, and subcontracting partnerships with other builders — full-service capability from the ground up.

Karhu Construction
Karhu Construction LLC is a Maine-based carpentry and construction company built on a simple belief — that every project deserves the same level of care, precision, and craftsmanship, whether it's a custom built-in for a coastal home or a timber addition on a remote off-grid camp.
With over 20 years of experience, our team brings deep expertise in finish carpentry, custom millwork, kitchens, staircases, and new construction. We are licensed, insured, and proudly family owned.
We work across Maine — from the coast to the woods — taking on the projects that matter, including off-grid cabins, remote camp remodels, and additions where the work is as much about the journey as the destination.
Every project we take on reflects our three core values, represented by the three stars above our bear: Craftsmanship. Heart. Integrity.

What Our Clients Say
The relationships we build are as important as the structures we create.
Karhu Construction transformed our living room with a custom built-in that exceeded every expectation. The attention to detail and quality of craftsmanship is unlike anything we’ve seen. The team at Karhu treated our home like their own.
We hired Karhu for a full kitchen renovation and couldn’t be happier. The cabinetry work is flawless, and they kept us informed every step of the way. Worth every penny for the quality delivered.
As a general contractor I’ve worked with a lot of finish carpenters. Karhu is at the top of the list. Professional, precise, and they show up. I won’t use anyone else for high-end finish work.
